That's good that she finally had a good B.M. Certain meds and the anesthesia from surgery can really cause bad constipation. Just make sure she's taking in plenty of fluids and urinating. That's good that she takes her meds. After all she's been through she deserves whatever she's willing to eat. Hot dogs are a good idea. My pet's vet suggested to me in the past to cook up a little ground beef and add it to the regular dog food.

after going off plan and increasing caloric intake for 3.5 days, i'm going back on plan. here's hoping the shake up rattles some fat off of my ass.

day two back on plan.

when i went off to try to stimulate losses again, i was really afraid that i wouldn't get back into it. i don't wanna jinx it, but so far, so good. managing meals on campus is, and definitely will continue to be) a challenge, but i'm sure it will be fine.

i really hope i start losing again.

when i went on mf, i lost a lot of muscle because i just couldn't work out the way i was. now, after a couple of weeks back at the gym, i see and feel noticeable muscle in my arms, abs, calves, and thighs. it's kinda of crazy how quickly i build. i don't get huge, but i tone up very quickly... which i hope will serve me well in continued loss and maintenance.

i just need my stubborn fat to start obeying the eviction notice i served on it.

my gift to myself.
as of today, i am obese, but i am no longer morbidly obese.
when i was 400#, i would look at people who are the size i am now, and i thought to myself, "i would kill to be that small."

now that i am here, i know this is not a resting point, let alone the end of the journey. but, as of today, i have fought 160# off of my ass. i think "fought" is the right word, because my body has tried to keep the weight on any way it could. sometimes, my head conspired with my ass to form the cookies and cupcake alliance.

as of today, i have official proof that, while the war is still being waged, i may claim several battle victories as mine.

yesterday, i went to the mall to check out the clothes at new york and company. they always email coupons and whatnot-- and this month when you buy stuff they give you coupons good for extra money off next month (spend 30, get 15 off-- not a bad deal). i bought 2 pairs of jeans and a couple of fitted shirts. i bought the jeans smaller because it makes sense. i thought the shirts would need a while to fit, too... but when i tried them on last night, i realized that they only need about 5 more # before they fit.

even more incredible, when i was in there, the salespeople didn't look at me like i must have been shopping for a gift for someone else. yeah, we all know they do that. they treated me like i was there because i belonged there. it was amazing.

I love reading your journal and blog. Your journey has been incredible and inspiring, so brava! I've never heard of NY&Co, but there are more than enough fun stores around here to do damage to my pocketbook. Hurray for your NSV! Next stop, overweight.
